| And now it's Denny Freeman..... Another great blues guitarist gone. So sad. I mostly heard him on record but did see him with Angela Strehli once. Great show, great band. RIP | |
| When did you most enjoy the music? I can remember music coming out of a cheap AM transistor radio, probably with a cracked speaker, resonating with the very fabric of my being. Bob Dylan - Like a Rolling Stone, The Who - I Can See For Miles, Jefferson Airplane - Somebody To Love. T... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Hanna Enlof - BareBonesSwedish singer-songwriter. Good late night music. It always surprises me how Scandinavians can do a perfect American accent, considering how different their mother tongue is. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Laurie Lewis - And Laurie Lewis | |
| Is it Me, the Vinyl or the Equipment? I'm not a vinyl guy, so take this for what it's worth.Is the problem only on these two records? If not, it's probably your TT. I have read of some tables needing a subsonic filter. | |
| Why not more popular? There are a number of open baffle speakers sold fully assembled. I regularly see Emerald Physics for sale on Audiogon, and Nola speakers made a big splash in the audiophile world a few years ago and they're still around. A google search will tur... | |
| Should I buy the CSNY 50th anniversary Deja Vu box set? Buy the vinyl set now, but don't open it. If everyone's raving about it, tear into it! If the reviews are bad send it back for a refund. | |
| Should I buy the CSNY 50th anniversary Deja Vu box set? Go for the all vinyl set if that's what you really want. You only go around once.If you want to be cautious, wait for people to review it and see what kind of reviews the vinyl gets. I'd bet it's not a limited edition, so you'll have time to see... | |

| Kind of Blue SACD on a whim. If you have Qobuz, and you want to ease into jazz, some accessible, great sounding jazz albums I’ve been listening to lately are:Lisa Hilton - NocturnalLara Driscoll - Woven DreamsCurtis Stigers - GentlemanRon Carter - Foursight - The Complete Sto... | |
| Kind of Blue SACD on a whim. IMHO, the Mofi SACD is an excellent version and you don’t need to try to find something better. It does play at the correct speed. You’re right that some of the earlier CD versions did not.If you want to learn a little about what goes into finding... | |
| The myth of "best" in audio needs to be addressed by all of us Here is what Stereophile says about its Recommended Components list: Sidebar: How to Use the ListingsThe classes each cover a wide range of performance. Carefully read our descriptions here, the original reviews, and (heaven forbid) reviews in ot... | |
| Dave Alvin/From An Old Guitar If you haven’t heard Dave’s "Eleven Eleven" I think you’ll like that one too. It's got a pretty funny song with brother Phil on it. | |
| Why not more popular? What I don’t understand is why there are so few speaker companies making open baffle speakers, and why are they not more popular among audiophiles? Because we all hear differently, have different tastes, different rooms and different systems. Diff... | |
| Can anyone recommend a printable label for vacuum tube boxes? How about Avery inkjet labels (or any other brand)? They come in just about any size you might want, you can make a template for them or just do them one at a time on your computer and print them out. You can probably remove them off the boxes w... |
